CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
20
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remembers-these guidelines are
general in nature. For more detailed information about
exercise, obtain a reputable book or consult your
physician.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether you want to burnfat or to strengthen•your car-
diovascular system, you can tailoryour exercise to
your specilic goals. The key to achieving the desired
results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
Burning Fat
To burn fateffectively, you must exercise at a relatively
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
.During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-
gy. Only after th_ first few minutes of exercise does
your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy.
If your goal is to r0umfat, the console's built-in Fat
Calorie.Monitor will help you to maintain the proper
intensity level. As you exercise, the Fat Calorie Monitor
will show you when your exercise intensity is too low,
too high, or perfect for burning fat. (See HOW TO USE
THE FAT CALORIE MONITOR on page 11.)
Cardiovascular Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be "aerobic." Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. Aerobic exercise increases
the demand on the heart to pump blood to the mus-
cles, and o_nthe lungs to oxy_]enatethe blood. The
proper 'intensity level for aerobic exercise can be found
by using your pulse as a guide. As yOu exercise, your
pulse should be kept at alevel between 70% and 85%
of your maximum possible heart rate. This is known as
your training zone. You can find your training zone in

the table above. Training zones are listed according to
age and physical condition.
During the first few months of your exercise program,
keep your pulse near the low end of your training zone
as you exercise. After a few months of regular exer-
cise, your pulse can be gradually increased until it is
near the middle of your training zone as you exercise.
You can measure your pulse using the pulse sensor.
Exercise for about four minutes, and then measure
your pulse immediately. If your pu!Seis too high,
.decrease the intensity of your exercise. If your pulse is
too low, increase the intensity of your exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
When exercising, wear loose-fitting, comfortable cloth-
ing. Do not wear clothing that could become
caught in the treadmill. Always wear athletic shoes
for foot protection.
Each workout should include three basic parts: (1) a
warm-up, (2) training zone exercise, and (3) a cool-down.
Warming Up .
Warming up prepares the body for exercise by increas-
ing circulation, delivering more oxygen to the muscles
and raising the body temperature. Begin each workout
with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise to
warm up (see SUGGESTED STRETCHES on page 21)•
Training Zone Exercise
After warming up, increase the intensity of your exer-
cise untilyour pulse is in your training zone for 20 to
